Of all the things I have listed here I only had to buy more and more electrical tape and the Great Stuff. The skulls and feet I had left over from last year.

For the base/stand I used boards cut and sanded from a wooden pallet.

For the paper mache, including newspaper, tissue and both of the paper towels I used a flour paste. Take 3 cups of water and 1 cup of flour and slowly bring to a soft boil while stirring. The paste can be stored in the fridge for a week. By adding a pinch or two of salt after it is made will keep insects from trying to eat it when it dries.

Poses can be made to fit whatever purposes you may have. Life like zombies make a great addition to any yard.

I love the Zombies! I am a paper mache artist, and I have found that if you cover your skulls and feet with vaseline and then mache them, they will pop right off and you won't lose as much detail like when you cover them with foil.

This is amazing! Seriously, looks very professional, and you've explained everything so well that anyone could do it! Plus, electrical tape=PVC for base=Great Stuff=uberuseful, easily-attainable materials. The best kind of project. One suggestion I would make, to second l8nite, is slowing down your slideshow a bit, if you can help that. You have a lot of useful comments that are hard to read at the rate you have them going. I kind of want one to stand around in my dorm floor forever. "Hey, guys, want to have a zombie-themed Christmas?"

LOVE IT ! I hope you can get an "ible" to work, as nice as the pics are its difficult (at least for me) to really follow along when having to click each pic. I learned 2 things this year, give yourself more time for paper mache projects and adding salt makes the project more desirable to small critters like squirrels. Im definately going to be attempting a creature or 5 like this..
